Upon conception, stems cells give rise to every cell and tissue in the body. They are the bodies master cells that remain with the body through a life time and are the basic building blocks of human tissue. They have the ability to repair, rebuild and rejuvenate tissues in the body. Stem cells respond to disease or injury and facilitate the healing process by differentiating into specialized cells required for the body’s repair. They release healing growth factors in response to a distress cell signal in an injured or pathologic area of the body. Bay Oaks Physical Medicine in Webster wants to help you!

How do I know if I am a candidate in Webster?

Our office will schedule a complimentary consultation, evaluation, medical records review and radiologic review to determine if you are a candidate.

HOW OFTEN WILL I NEED TREATMENT?

Treatments at Bay Oaks Physical Medicine are patient and condition specific. For many degenerative joint conditions and soft tissue tears, we anticipate needing just one treatment in a patient’s lifetime if no new injury traumatizes the joint following treatment.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?

Treatments are condition specific and patient specific. The cost is determined by the number of stem cells deployed. Most patients in Webster are treated for less than the cost of braces for teeth or Lasik surgery for vision. Treatments for small joints like ankles or wrists can be treated for as little as $3,500. Larger joints require more cells so the cost increases.

DO YOU USE MY OWN STEM CELLS?

No, Bay Oaks Physical Medicine, utilizes Human Umbilical Cord Stem Cells UCSC), which is the most advanced stem cell product available. Published research reveals stem cells from the umbilical cord replicate faster and replicate for many more generations than other types of stem cells. Umbilical Cord Stem Cells also have a higher level of pluripotency than mature adult stem cells helping the body regenerate lost tissue like cartilage, muscle and soft tissue faster and more effectively.

Processing the Umbilical Cord Stem Cells (UCSC) follows the American Association of Tissue Banks (AATB). After initial processing the UCSC are third party independent FDA registered lab tested for all know communicable diseases. While this is taking place the stem cells are processed and removed from the red blood cell products. Only after both lab reports come back “clean” and the stem cells have passed the regulatory requirements are the processed UCSC available for distribution.

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO SEE RESULTS?

Since each condition and patient is unique, there is no guarantee of how fast the results will be achieved. According to patient feedback, most patients at Bay Oaks Physical Medicine in Webster report results within a few days; however, it may take as long as six to nine months.
